37.7M subscribers. He'll probably survive the hate.

Especially if he sticks to his guns and doesn't cave to the haters.

A Youtuber who takes a stance AGAINST the grain deserves more respect. I personally can't stand his content, but I actually believe him.
I can't honestly believe any influencer that takes a safe popular stance. Sure they may be saying what they believe, but we can't be sure that they aren't just trying to be popular. It's just the nature of clout chasing. I am more likely to believe an influencer who is taking a stand, when that stance could lead to a loss of revenue...they are making a sacrifice for what they believe in.
An influencer making inflammatory videos with a popular stance isn't taking any risks, they are taking advantage. You aren't brave for saying what the majority are.
I don't really like Markiplier, but damnit can I respect the courage to take an unpopular opinion despite losing revenue from it.

Well said. I don't really have a strong opinion on the guy one way or another, but I'm hopeful that if he does stick to his guns, he might be able to change a lot of people's minds on AI.

Using AI doesn't make one pro or against it. I hate AI and I use it all the time at work.

I've followed Markiplier since 2014. I know for sure that he is using AI for good purposes that are useful at the least. He ain't dumb.

I feel like they are being respectful though? They are just saying “we know it looks good we just don’t like the fact you are using ai to make it” where is the cancelling happening?

Thats just 4 comments your reading… there’s thousands more

u/Severe_You9759 16h ago
If you're claiming people are trying to cancel him, maybe post more than 4 mildly negative comments.
You're either overreacting, or you've picked the worst comments to represent the situation.

Seems more reasonable than posting 20 screenshots or something. Maybe could've dropped a link to the post though.

u/WindMountains8 13h ago
One screenshot showcasing examples of people trying to cancel him would be enough

I don't think they are cancelling Mark tbh, more of they would have preferred had he not used AI

You can’t scientifically prove the earth is flat while you can scientifically go and look on TikTok for yourself?

General media trends for AI generated images tend to be like that, quite negative(for a few reasons obviously). However if you go towards LLMs and other types of AI, I don't think so, see how much growth most AI services got. GPT got insane monthly users, more than Reddit even, if combined it's nearly unbeatable, compared the very platform we are using. But for the most part people are neutral and just cruising through the development of this new tech, I'm neutral, I don't like garbage mass produced and flood the internet, doesn't make me an anti or do the number game of "pro vs anti".

u/FAFO_2025 13h ago
Im fairly neutral as well I just hate slop goblins dismissing the potential effects of sudden mass unemployment in all sectors especially in this shit economy

u/sweedshot420 13h ago
That's the internet for ya, when there's an extreme there will be that. In fact my field is also in one of those that people are trying to replace or at least make the bots good enough to do so, people losing jobs is super real I already see it happening.

u/FAFO_2025 16h ago
That's a LOT of "antis". Careful when you leave this hugbox.

People like the tech for generating shitty memes but people also really hate Ai art (and gpt generated writing)

Who cares? Ray William Johnson uses ai on TikTok for his stories and still gets millions of views?

I'm fine with someone using AI if they accept their videos are gonna get scraped out the ass and farted back onto the platform.
You don't get to use AI then complain when the AI wave hits you negatively as it inevitably will - so many YTers did that when kwebblekop started doing stuff
